Summary
Across the world, young people are having sex later and less often than ever before. Their early sexual experiences happen through screens; their real-world relationships are distorted by deepfakes, rewritten by extreme pornography and polarised by politics. In this brave new world, it may come as no surprise that for a new generation of girls, sex is more fraught than ever.
Reporting from the front lines of the sexual landscape, Peggy Orenstein draws on hundreds of interviews with young women to examine their generation's reluctance to engage with men and the cynical, violent or simply boring encounters that result when they do. With her characteristic intimacy and urgency, Peggy's thought-provoking research ultimately comes down to one thing: young women just want more.
